I’m typing this on an iPhoneX I got on day of release. I’ve had a new battery and it’s still perfect. I kept telling myself I’d wait for USB-C, but now it’s here I’m just not bothered. I think the only reason I would have to upgrade is when mobile apps drop support for iOS 16. What “must have” feature are you using to justify an upgrade?

    The chip on your phone is about the same performance as the latest iPad with the older design your good for at least another year

      I forgot to add I tend to not like the pro models so I would wait a year for the latest chip to trickle down and hopefully bring usb3 to the none pro models.

      I’m also hoping for a mini

        I think Apple wants mini enjoyers to just keep a phone in their bag and by an Apple Watch too!

        I’m curious why you prefer the non-pro models?
